The 2020 Ducati Motorcycle Lineup + Our Take on Each Model

2020 Is A Great Year for Ducati Motorcycles

Ducati has been killing it lately. The company ended the 2019 year on a high note, and it’s 2020 lineup looks equally impressive. Even more so, if I’m being honest. The company keeps adding the kind of bikes that folks want to buy and ride, and that’s the recipe for success in this business. Here’s what’s on sale in 2020.

Diavel

2020 Ducati Diavel 1260 / 1260 S

The Italian power cruiser is unlike any other bike out there. Yes, you can lump it in with Triumph’s Rocket 3 and some of the other super high-powered cruisers, but the Diavel 1260 is really a different animal. The base 1260 is a beast of a machine and then there’s the 1260 S that takes things up a notch with more advanced features and additional amenities.

The powertrain on this bike consists of a 1,262cc DVT L-twin that puts out 159 hp and 95 lb-ft of torque. The engine is mated to a six-speed manual transmission. The bike also gets cornering ABS, traction control, and Ducati Wheelie Control, among other features.

2020 Ducati XDiavel / XDiavel S

The Ducati XDiavel is more of the same Diavel bike but with a slightly different formula. The XDiavel (and XDiavel S) are slightly less powerful and a little sleeker to look at. The bike is still a serious powerhouse and something that’s hard not to enjoy.

The bike features a 1262cc twin engine that makes 152 hp and 93 lb-ft of torque. The throttle is a ride-by-wire system and there’s the Ducati Power Launch allowing you to, well, launch powerfully. This is the Dragster of the Ducati lineup with that system. The bike also gets a host of tech features much like the Diavel shown above.

Hypermotard

2020 Ducati Hypermotard 950 / 950 SP

Not a fan of the whole power cruiser thing? Want something more capable and ready for anything you can throw at it? The Hypermotard 950 (and 950 SP) are for you. This is a bike designed for the hooligans of the world. It’s sporty, powerful, and ready to deliver unlimited excitement.

The motorcycle features a 937cc engine that makes 114 hp and 71 lb-ft of torque. The bike also comes with modern technology like ABS and powered USB socket. The SP version of the bike gets a Ducati Quick Shifter some upgrades suspension and some other goodies that the base model misses out on.

Monster

2020 Ducati Monster 797

The Ducati Monster has been a staple in the brand’s lineup for decades and it shows no signs of slowing down. The Monster is aptly named and the 797 version is the bottom of the ladder. It’s a bike positioned as an entry to the Ducati brand and what an entry-level machine it is.

The motorcycle features an 803cc engine that pumps out 73 hp and 49 lb-ft of torque. Is it the most extreme Monster out there? Of course not, but it’s more than adequate to give you Ducati fever. This bike is a killer machine.

2020 Ducati Monster 821 / 821 Stealth

Take a step up from the Monster 797 and you’ll find the Monster 821 (and 821 Stealth) waiting for you with open arms. This bike is a little beefier. Ducati says its there to pay homage to the Monster 800 that revolutionized things more than 25 years ago. I see the resemblance. There’s also a blacked-out Stealth version you can buy.

The motorcycle offers up 109 hp and 63 lb-ft of torque thanks to an 821 cc engine. Other notable qualities to this bike are the various ride modes and power modes, Bosch ABS, and traction control.

The motorcycle is built for tearing up streets and curvy roads and is equally happy on a track. The 1200 S version of the bike adds some better equipment and some aesthetic upgrades.

The engine is a 1,198cc mill that puts out 147 hp and 91 lb-ft of torque. The bike comes with extra goodies like Cornering ABS, Ducati Traction Control, Ducati Wheelie Control (fun!), and various riding modes.

The engine is a 1,103cc powerhouse producing 208 hp and 90.4 lb-ft of torque. That makes for a blurringly fast machine. This warp-speed rocket also comes in V4 S trim, which adds better suspension, wheels, and more.

Multistrada

2020 Ducati Multistrada 950 / 950 S

The Multistrada is a sport-touring machine that also competes with some of the ADV bikes out there. It’s street-oriented, but Ducati has some more off-road-ready models I’ll discuss below. The Multistrada 950 and 950 S are the bottom rungs of the ladder for this design, but even that is a pretty high bar. The Multistrada is an impressive bike perfect for a wide variety of riding duties.

This bike, and the 1260 S, Take the design to new levels adding power, features and more. There’s also a Pikes Peak Edition version of the motorcycle that gets some performance parts to commemorate Ducati’s winning heritage at the event.

The motorcycle gets a 1,262cc engine that makes a strong 158 hp and 95.5 lb-ft of torque. That’s more than enough for any adventure. There are plenty of features, but if you’re a performance junkie, the Pikes Peak edition is the one to get with a performance exhaust system and Ohlins suspension.

Feast your eyes on a thing of beauty. The Ducati SuperSport is a unique blend of comfort, versatility, and performance. The bike is visually compact and lightweight.

Oh, Ducati and your scramblers. The company has many, and to kick us off, we’ll look to the Sixty2. This bike is the most basic and features a modest powerplant that more than gets the job done for a lot of folks. Pair that with modern classic styling and you have an awesome bike.
